Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The evolution of sensor engineering has resulted in spectacular developments over the years in many existing and emerging applications, including robotic technologies, human–machine interfacing, bioelectronic devices, and electronics skins. Owing to their unique and fascinating properties, nanocomposite-based sensors (NCSs) have been extensively studied in recent years. NCSs can be synthesized with several different approaches, thus allowing the realization of various novel chemical and biological sensors. Nanocomposites used in the fabrication of NCSs have been synthesized in various combinations, such as conductive polymers with graphene (Grp), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and metal nanoparticles. This Special Issue will cover recent applications based on NCSs for the fabrication of electrochemical sensors, biosensors, immunosensors, aptamer sensors, flexible sensors, strain sensors, electrochemical sensors, optical sensors, gas sensors, pressure sensors, glucose sensors, pH sensors, humidity sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and amperometric sensors.
We look forward to receiving your contribution to this Special Issue.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
